You can use the View | Statusbar | Tracker menu item to toggle the visibility of the Tracker status bar.

Status bar for 6doF Machines

1. System Laser Status Indicator: This field indicates the status of the Laser Tracker system.

- No Color (Offline): The system is not online.

- Green (Ready): The system is ready to measure.

- Yellow (Busy): The system is currently measuring.

- Red (Not ready): The system is not ready to measure. This may be due to a broken beam or a T-Probe reflector mismatch.

- Blue (6dof error): The camera cannot see enough LEDs on the device (usually a T-Probe) to accurately calculate the orientation of the probe.

2. Probe Name: This field indicates the name of the probe that you defined in the Probe Utilities dialog box.

3. Probe Diameter: This field indicates the diameter of the probe tip that you defined in the Probe Utilities dialog box.

4. Probe Compensation: This field indicates whether probe compensation is enabled (Insert | Parameter | Probe | Probe Compensation).

5. Active Station Indicator: This field indicates the station that is currently active. You can double-click on this field to open the Station Manager dialog box to add or delete stations.

- Red (Not oriented): The station position has not been computed yet.

- Green (Oriented) The station position has been computed.

6. Temperature: This shows the temperature if you have a weather station connected.

7. Pressure: This shows the pressure if you have a weather station connected.

8. Humidity: This shows the current humidity if you have a weather station connected.

9. Power Lock (ON/OFF): When set to ON, this performs an auto-lock on a reflector for Tracker systems that have the Power Lock feature. When set to OFF, you must manually catch the beam to lock onto it.

For temperature, pressure, and humidity, if you don't have a weather station connected to the machine, you can double-click on the boxes to type the values.

Status Bar Differences for 3D Machines

Most of the items in a 3D machine status bar are identical to those used above for 6doF machines. But depending on your hardware and configurations, your status bar may use some of these additional icons.

Connection icons:

- The device is connected to power.

- The device is on battery power.

- Controller is connected to power.

- Controller is on battery power.

Tracker Measurement Profile Mode icons:

- No Profile

- Standard Profile

- Fast Profile

- Precise Profile

- Outdoor Profile

The Tracker measurement profile mode icons require firmware v2.0 or higher.

If PC-DMIS fails to determine the Tracker measurement profile mode, the toolbar button icon and the status bar icon for the measurement profile display the No Profile symbol (). If this happens, select the measurement profile from the toolbar button or the tracker menu.

Probing Mode icons:

- Average

- Single
